Hi everyone. I'm sorry if this has been in a previous discussion , but I'm running out of time and weather and would really like to take my family boating. Ok so I have a 1991 SUNRAY PRELUDE with a 230/V8 ( I believe a 305) I just bought this boat and dumped it into the lake to see how it runs. It starts fine and you need to keep it at about 1500 rpm to keep running , and has no problem of revving up to 6000 rpm. I know it's not good for that but you will understand, I hope. When I try to go for neutral to drive , if I don't Rev it and switch it fast enough it will die. When I do get it in drive, I can have it full throttle and the carburetor will cough and pop and the boat will only do 5mph at 2000 rpm. I put seafoam in the gas tank and cleaned out fuel filter on the rochester carburetor. It has been replaced with a plastic one not the cardboard ones. I put fresh high octane fuel in and the problem still persists. Is there someone out there that can help me out , and hopefully earn some brownie points with my family?
Sincerely
Lost.....
